What are examples of oxymorons in Harry Potter?

Answer 1

The Harry Potter series was full of interesting language including oxymoron's. For some people, good withes and good wizards are examples of oxymoron's as are pleasant enchantments because they believe all magic is bad. At times in the series, Harry felt alone when surrounded by people, someone told a harmless lie, or pulled a harmless prank.

Answer 2

From The Lord of the Rings in general- not specifically from the Return of the King:

"But you speak of Master Gandalf, as if he was in a story that had come to an end.'

'Yes, we do,' said Pippin sadly. 'The story seems to be going on, but I am afraid Gandalf has fallen out of it." (he didn't actually "fall out of" the story)

"Cold be hand and heart and bone,

and cold be sleep under stone:

never more to wake on stony bed,

never, till the Sun fails and the Moon is dead.

In the black wind the stars shall die,

and still on gold here let them lie,

till the dark lord lifts his hand

over dead sea and withered land." (the moon, nor the stars can really "die" persay)
